Brooks didn't do much. I didn't notice him at all. He was their danger man first half. Always in space and on the half turn. Streets ahead of Pritchard And yet did nearly nothing with the ball, something you'd be all over Pritchard for.

Pritchard worked really hard today. One of few players to emerge with any credit.

Pritchard worked really hard today. One of few players to emerge with any credit. And where was the fans favourite, Billing?

24 million spent on Mounie and Pritchard. What a waste What a waste of a comment. Pritchard was superb today or are you just programmed to say that every week? Superb is not the word I'd use. Worked hard to little effect. Same as usual.

This is a total blame game " EXCEPT FOR THE FANS " Hoyle = Underfunded investment in quality at this level mainly this season thus getting nothing more than we deserved Wagner = Dreadful summer recruitement ,and relegation needs to be STAMPED on his CV as only fair to take the rough with the smooth Jan = His chance will come next season providing Hoyle gives him some money to buy quality The fans = This club does not deserve these wonderful fans Hoyles to blame for spending within his means? Bore-off. The recruitment department have not spent wisely/or had enough luck or experience unearthing gems. Quite alot of the fans at the moment seem fickle and ungrateful.

I am afraid to say that a minnow team with 4 wins in 21 has beaten us easily today. One of those wins were against us to boot. The team, I say that loosely, are in serious trouble next season judging on performances individually and collectively. It needs a root and branch approach to stop the rot.

I just don't see how we turn this around, and I'm talking about next season. We aren't suddenly going to become a coherent attacking force just because we drop a division. Our inability to threaten the goal will be just as apparent in the Championship. Confidence isn't going to come flooding back. It's going to need quite a bit of new blood with no baggage.We need to look at how Sunderland have turned around with a massive clear out, changed the style of play and got the fans back on side. Admittedly, they had two relegations (which we need to avoid) and a change of ownership as well but lessons can be learned about how to stabilise and stop the rot.

The top and the bottom of it is that the team lacks. It lacks in many areas, defense, mid-field and forwards. You don't need top rated players to make a winning team but what you do require is players who blend and play together as a single unit. Of course they need attributes, one being the ability to run and not run aimlessly. They need pace and the ability to see a pass and make that pass but the players also need to make the runs. I fear for us next season. It looks to me as a start again process but how do you offload players you feel wont contribute when they have contracts?

We don't have the tools to hurt teams at this level. We lack pace, vision and quality. We all know this.
But even having accepted our limitations, our utter inability to create is a real worry, even when we drop a division. We lack quality, but we also seem to lack any nous about how to create chances. There are lots of ways to create in football, but we don't seem able to get a handle on any of them. We are so completely clueless in and around the box it becomes laughable at times.
Cardiff have scored twice as many goals as us, and have twice as many points. Do they really have twice the amount of quality? Of course not, but they have a goal threat and we do not. We have become a team totally devoid of even basic attacking ability. We pass the ball tidily, and can control possession, but this gives us a false impression of being competitive. We aren't unfortunately because teams let us have possession and just wait for their chance to pick us off. It's happened so many times this season, and happened again today. It is all so depressingly predictable.

I don't think we had one shot on goal! What does that tell you about us?

I think Mooys free kick was on target albeit from some way out. We have no threat though within the box as nobody can be arsed to attack the goal or put themselves in positions which threaten the defence.

This is a " WAGNER TEAM " , and the only so called MIRACLE i can see here is how was it possible for him to put such a cheap and cheerful squad together that shows such ongoing consistent shite at the highest level of English football especially when looking at the present league /form table
Took some bollocks for Jan to take this job on as had failed written all over it from day one

Has anyone seen the challenge on Pritchard in the second half again?
Looked a foul to me. Was it a foul? And was it inside or outside the box?
Was a key incident in the game, especially as Bournemouth went up the other end to score their second goal shortly after.

It looked inside, was way more of a foul than most of the stuff Fraser was rolling around for, but there's no way we're getting a penalty until we're relegated. Taylor was a joke today. Pointed at his watch when they were taking the piss with their celebrations and injuries, then added 2 and 3 minutes on. It's no wonder none of our refs got last 16 games in the champions league when they can't get something as simple as that right.

I assume you are talking about the one bang centre in the 'D'?

I've got beyond getting annoyed at the officials - I just expect it now. The amount of time Bournemouth took to get back after scoring was a joke though. And the incident where one of their players pulled up on the Riverside side, went off the pitch and then chucked himself back on the field of play to get the game stopped was ridiculous. Taylor was another in a long line of shite refs we've had to endure. And Bournemouth were just another in a long line of play-acting amd cheating Premier League teams we've played. It's the same every week. Almost as predictable as Town failing to score!

Not a foul in a million years - honestly - watch it again if you can - Pritchard throws himself to the ground !

I assume you are talking about the one bang centre in the 'D'? I think so. But the contact to me looked inside the box and he fell out of it. Not that it made a difference because without a Bournemouth shirt on he was never getting the decision.

Put simply it was a total lack of effort from every player who started the game.There isn’t one player I’d keep after that pathetic effort,a shit side came and won at an absolute canter. What’s worrying is the manager is acting like Alex Ferguson when he’s done fuck all in the game except upset everyone he’s ever met.

Can't really fault him for trying - every other bloody Premier League team has plenty of players who do the same. And often get decisions in their favour!

He’s firing people behind the scenes,chefs,groundsmen.Its obvious to me after the last couple of weeks the players don’t want to play for him. Im all for someone coming in and kicking arse but to me this guy is too aggressive,and has no respect.He hasn’t yet figured out that bacuna isn’t a right back

He has tried to get them to play a different way, which has partly worked, instead of the system Wagner worked with. We've had some pretty bad luck as well as some untimely injuries. I must admit though, I'm baffled with his team selections. Mounie instead of Grant today? Billing in the middle when he should have been dropped. Bacuna at right back. Zanka (showpony) gets a game as well. Still at least he is trying to bring some of the young lads through. Something Wagner wouldn't have done.

I agree they aren’t his players,but to be honest at the moment I wouldn’t give him transfer budget in the summer,he has imo made a bad team worse and it seems the players have totally given up,not great for a new manager.Agree with the young lads getting game time though.

He did it a few times today and he's not as good at it as some of the truly great PL divers. He's getting plaudits on some other posts but for me he just runs around a lot with now't much else. Might be ok back in the Championship
